Wii Fit Plus with Balance Board

Anyone who has a Wii must have a Fit Board! It may seem to be suitable for fitness fanatics, but this piece of kit and the accompanying game can deliver fun to anyone. 
You should not underestimate how much fun it is to imitate skiing in your front room, while if it reduces your waistline at the same time, all the better.
A Wii Fit board and game is available at Gamestation.co.uk for £59.99 and this could make anyone happy this Christmas.
